Resort Scams

What are resort scams? How do resort scams affect you as a consumer? Are you a victim of a resort scam? What rights do you have as a consumer if you believe you are a victim of a resort scam? Consumers are asking themselves these questions daily, before, and after they have purchased a timeshare from a resort. Many of these consumers do not have any idea that they are victims until they have indeed purchased.
Resort scams are any sort of misrepresentation, or deceptive sales practices that happen to consumers when they buy a timeshare. If you purchased a timeshare in the past ten years, odds are you are a victim. Many timeshare owners are unaware they are actually a victim, until they start to use their timeshare. Generally first year of use on any new purchase is the following year, unless it is a bi-annual, or tri-annual contract. So some consumers might not know for two, or three years. By this time the stated rescission period in the contract is obviously over, and they are left thinking they cannot get out of the contract.
When first finding out that you are a victim of a resort scam, you need to assess all the facts form your purchase. These facts are very important, they will help you cancel a fraudulent contract, and possibly get your money back. You have rights as a consumer, contrary to what the resort staff tells you. Most of the time, consumers find these facts out when they call the resort, and try to use the timeshare.
The resorts first job, when you find these facts out, is to spin you around, and make it seem like you are the one who is in the wrong. Resorts will use any means necessary to keep you in your timeshare, including threats of legal action, if YOU do not continue to pay for the timeshare. This in the timeshare cancellation industry, we call scare tactics. The resort wants to scare you into submission. They know they are wrong, but until you process any type of formal complaint; the resort is exempt from action. They will try to brow beat, threaten, or coerce you into keeping your timeshare.

Timeshare Help

Timeshare help comes in many different forms, and from many different resources, such as the Attorney Generals Office in the state you bought your timeshare, The Federal Trade Commission, which governs sales, and consumer purchases, also the Federal department of Real Estate and the BBB where you made your purchase.

 Timeshare-Answers is a company that specializes in the precise way to go about getting help from these agencies, and many more. Be wary of the help offered to you from unsolicited phone calls, unlicensed companies, and any other self help guide books, or forms that are offered for a fee on the internet.

When trying to get timeshare related help you need to make sure that any company you find is a well established business that has been in business for a minimum of 3 years. Anything under 3 years, you could be in for another scam. You should also contact the BBB in the area the business is located. This is to see what kind of rating the company has. One thing to keep in mind, when cross-referencing a company with the BBB, is to check for length of time business has been operating. Also check if the company is licensed, bonded, and insured.

When a company is licensed, bonded, and insured you as a consumer are protected. First, it guarantees that the money you give the company will not be lost. The insurance covers your money. Second the license the company carries needs to be governed by a state, or federal agency. This assures you that the company is following all the rules, regulations, and is constantly monitored from a government agency. Third is the proper bonding is in place to add a second layer of protection for any, possible issue, such as a lawsuit.
Some more specific examples are, buying a book, instead of taking a college course, or hiring a handyman instead of a general contractor to build your new home.

Timeshare Lawyer

When it comes to canceling a timeshare, there are limited options for the timeshare owner. Usually timeshare owners know within the first few years of use that something is wrong. They try booking their week, only to be told nothing is available, or the reason they bought is untrue. Most timeshare owner’s first thought is to call a lawyer. This is a common mistake when it comes to getting the help you need. The lawyer (usually contract lawyer) will take one look at the contract, and tell the timeshare owner it is solid. If no more research is done, the timeshare owner continues to pay for this fraudulent purchase.

Another misconception timeshare owners have is; they try to use their family lawyer, or a lawyer who is referred from a friend, or family member.  The lawyer then looks at contract, says its solid. The lawyer knows he cannot help you; the contract is in a state he is not licensed to practice. Even if he has a license in the state the timeshare was purchased, how many has he cancelled? The answer is, NONE. Lawyers do not go to college for timeshare law.

If you are in the stated rescission period on your contract, and want to cancel the purchase, you should read the contract thoroughly. Usually the contracts are very confusing, and there are numerous contacts on the contract. The timeshare resort does not want you to cancel; they want to keep your money. They will do everything in their power to make sure you do not cancel. They will lie, cheat, threaten, and misinform you about the proper cancellation procedure.
